Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 289 The Predicament of the Uesugi Family

Under the sunset, the Nooo Plain seemed to be more empty, and the fields and mountains of Mino were gradually shrouded in the twilight of the evening.

This is the ink stock.

The two tributaries of the Nagara River converge in one place, forming a Y-shape. On the other side of the river is Anpachi County in Mino.

With a straw in his mouth, Kinoshita Tokichiro stood on the bank and looked at Mino in the distance, but when he saw the vast water, he almost reached the horizon.

Hiyoshi

Hiyoshi

The harsh voice of Masakazu Bee Suga rang from behind Kinoshita Tokichiro.

Tokoshiro Kinoshita was somewhat unhappy with the name Hiyoshi. This was his childhood name and his nickname when he was a Taoist boy in Guangming Temple.

At that time, he was called a monkey in the temple because of his mature appearance and the brain of a hericium.

The monkey is the Taoist boy of the protector of Eizan Hiyoshi Myojin. In religious circles, Hiyoshi is a good name for Homo.

So when someone calls Lai Hiyoshi, there is a bit of ridicule.

"Didn't you tell you not to call me x Ji?". Kinoshita Tokichiro turned his head unhappily and said.

To this, Bee Suga Masayoshi just chuckled, and said, "I'm used to it. Forget it, I'm here to tell you that the rafts released from the upper reaches of the Hida River have already been fished in Songkura Beach."

"Very good."

Kinoshita Tokichiro's loud voice immediately sounded, and the unpleasant expression that had just been condensed, his face showed a chuckle of joy.

Then Kinoshita Tokichiro said in his own words: "It takes only half a day for this batch of wood to arrive here from Matsukura Beach. With this ready-made wood, the time I spend in Sumata for building the city can be greatly shortened, maybe it can be. Build a one-night city"

Masakazu Bee Suga also said: "Okay, Hiyoshi, let me tell you another news. I contacted the wealthy people nearby, and they all agreed to contribute to the construction of this city, but they demanded that they be promoted to the samurai of the Oda clan after the war."

"There is no problem, everything can satisfy them," Kinoshita Fujiyoshiro promised, "As long as I can build this city, I will be just around the corner."

After finishing talking, Kinoshita Fujiyoshiro couldn't help but remember what the lord Oda Nobunaga said to him before leaving.

Mogu can't build a castle, so it can't win Mino. If Mino is not allowed, the nearby river channel cannot be opened. If Omi is blocked, the world cannot be unified

"The lord's ambition is the ambition of my monkey. If there is no promotion from the lord, my monkey is still selling needles and changing coils and wandering around, so I must achieve it for the lord."

Tokoshiro Kinoshita thought of this, and strenuously waved his fist, and his whole body glowed with a high spirit of fighting spirit.

"By the way, this time the boy in Maeno, upstream of the Hida River, is back. He said that a fierce battle broke out in Hida last month. The Takeda army has already destroyed the two big sisters of Hida, the Xiaolu family and Jiangma family. Now Hida has been unified."

"What, dominate Hida." Tokoshiro Kinoshita showed surprise in his eyes, and then said, "Isn't it Li Xiao who guarded Hida in the Takeda family? It's unbelievable, how he did it."

Feng Suga Masaatsu immediately didn't take it seriously, saying: "What's weird about this, Hida country is very barren, and Shigao is far less than even a county in Owari country."

Tokoshiro Kinoshita shook his head and said: "No, Hida is poor, but it is very important. The Lord has said that if Shingen takes Hida from Hida, you can attack Mino from both Hida and Shinano at the same time. The speed will increase, otherwise Kai's tiger will preempt Shinano."

"With the power of one person, Li Xiao did not mobilize his family's army, and he unified Hida. This kind of character is the goal I will pursue in the future. I Fujiyoshiro's footsteps, let's start with this ink stock."

Yuezhong, Kasuga Mountain City.

Uesugi Kenshin sat in the hall, listening to Kato Danzo reporting to him that this time the Takeda family settled Hida.

After the narration, Kato Duan said in Tibetan: "I didn't expect Li Xiao to kill Sister Kolu Ryorai with a big iron cannon, and it turned the tide of the battle. It's incredible."

Naoe Keizuna said: "The big iron cannon is not a rare thing. There are also Yamaguchi-style artifact cannons in the family. Such a big iron cannon is rare and strange, but it is defeated by Li Xiao."

Kenshin Uesugi slowly stood up with the rosary in his hand and said, "It's not the case. Weapon benefits depend on the person who uses it. There are also big iron cannons, but because they are heavy and difficult to carry, they have never been valued to use. But Li Akatsuki discovered its effect."

"I guess that Li Xiao can hit the Sister Xiaolu Army's main formation this time because he used the height of Tianshen Mountain to shoot from a high altitude. This is the only way to get it. Otherwise, if the Sister Xiaolu Lianglai's military strategy is not good enough, he must not let Li Xiao use the big iron cannon like this. His weapon is close to his own formation."

"Exactly." Kato Duanzang admired in his heart. Although Uesugi Kenshin hadn't been on the battlefield, he guessed the situation well.

Naoe Keizuna went on to say: "Lord, Hida Sister Koro's family, Jiangma's family appears to be from the Takeda family, but in fact they contacted us secretly. Right now, Li Xiao decides Hida after the first battle, and there is no future trouble. , We also lost the bargaining chip to contain the Takeda family."

Kenshin Uesugi heard this, pondered for a while, and said: "Takeda Shingen is gradually encircling me in Echigo on three sides. Hida's loss is equivalent to completely opening up the enterprising channel for Shingen, so I can only rely on Jinbao. Home, Shiina."

Naoe Keizuna said: "Lord, now Yuezhong has always been fighting against Zengshan Castle, and it will no longer be the original power, and the mind of the head of the Jinbao family and Shiina family is also difficult to guess. If Shingen marches into Yuezhong, it is impossible to guarantee that it will not. Reverse, so instead of relying on the chief job of Jinbao to resist Takeda's invasion, it is better to completely control Jinbao and Shiina family in our hands."

Kenshin Uesugi responded to Keizuna Naoe's suggestion and remained silent.

Keizuna Naoe thought that Kenshin Uesugi was also concerned about morality, so he couldn't bear to make a decision.

But at this time, Duanzang Kato said: "Lord, just a few days ago, our Xuanyuan investigators heard the news that the eldest son of the priest, the chief priest, and the family member of the old temple island, are secretly communicating with Takeda Shingen."

"What?" Kenshin Uesugi asked in a deep voice, "Is the news accurate?"

Kato Danzo said in a loud voice: "Although there is no evidence, my subordinates have seen Shinobu Naga's residence in and out of the people in the turmoil. After I sent a ninja to follow Kusanosuke, I escaped for the other party. "

Kenshin Uesugi wrapped the rosary around his wrist, his eyes flashed, and he said: "This news is not groundless. I got a secret report from the Takeda family before saying that Takeda Shingen was originally an order, and Li Xiao went out to cross the center instead of attacking Hida. I’m wondering why Hida of Takeda’s family is undecided, why he dared to send troops to cross the middle. The only possibility is that Shingen has attacked Jinbo’s family and Shiina’s family. Right now it seems that my judgment is not wrong."

Naoe Keizuna said: "Lord, if this is the case, the attitude of the chief priest is very suspicious. We need to order him to thoroughly investigate this matter. If we conclude that this is the case, it is not only the chief residence of the God, but also the position of Terashima, everything will be involved. Everyone inside must have an abdomen cut."

"Especially for the Jinbao Naga, who has already entered the Taoist position as a monk. It is said that there has been an idea of ​​letting the monk superintendent. If the Shinbao Nagashi inherits the house superintendent, then the Jinbao family will join forces with Hida Li Xiao, so Yuezhong will not only cease to be a monk. Owned by the Uesugi family, and Shingen Takeda has been trying three ways to forge ahead, the trend of Echigo has been formed."

Said that Naoe Keizuna walked a few steps forward, bowing to Uesugi Kenshin and said: "Please make your decision early, otherwise I will be in danger."

Facing the consequences of what Naoe Keizuna said, Uesugi Kenshin certainly understood. He sighed and said: "As far as I know, the chief minister is very fond of his eldest son. For the current plan, the only way to do this is to let the chief minister first. The Shinsho Nagazu moved to live in Kasugayama Castle. After that, we secretly investigated the matter. If there is the truth, the Shinsho Nagazu will only die once. Now let's do it as I want."

Danzo Kato and Keizuna Naoe screamed together.

After Kato and Naoe retreated, Kenshin Uesugi slowly looked out of the palace. For the Uesugi family, the situation this year has undoubtedly worsened.

After the fall of Minowa City last year, Hojo Takahiro, the lord of Stable Bridge City, was also turned down by the Hojo family this year, so that the two major towns of Ueno are no longer controlled by the Uesugi family. Echigo's route out of Kanto has been blocked, and he is no longer able to compete with Hojo for hegemony in Kanto.

The Satake family and Satomi family who went out with them in Odawara at the beginning have also heard that in order to continue to contend with the Hojo family, they secretly allied with Uesugi’s mortal enemy Takeda Shingen.

In Uesugi Kenshin's eyes, Shingen Takeda's goal of capturing Nishiueno also had the ambition to set foot in Kanto and fight against the Hojo family.

When the city of Stable Bridge was lost, the situation in Kanto changed drastically.

The loss of Ueno is already an unbearable blow for the nominal Kanto leader Kenshin Uesugi.

Right now in the traditional sphere of influence of Echigo, the place of Yuezhong is also in danger of being lost. The land of Hida has changed hands, and Yuezhong has been unimpeded, directly facing the future military forces that may appear in the Takeda family.

Now that the minister is starting to feel unpredictable from within his Jinbao family, will this Echigo encirclement net, woven by Takeda Shingen, be truly formed?

If Shingen Takeda is really allowed to go to that point, it will undoubtedly be the end of Echigo.

When Kenshin Uesugi closed his eyes and meditated ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ a seductive thought came to mind.

That is the alliance with Hojo.

As soon as this idea came up, Kenshin Uesugi immediately suppressed it. This was an idea of ​​abandoning justice. If you ally with Hojo, you will undoubtedly abandon the justice you have always insisted on.

When Kenshin’s nominal father and former Kanto governor Uesugi Kensei passed the position of Kanto governor to Kenshin, he wanted Kenshin to replace him, restore the name of Uesugi’s family in the mountain, and defeat and kill his eldest son. , And gave him the humiliation of Hojo's Yasue.

Uesugi Kensei hopes Uesugi Kenshin can expel Hojo and retake Kanto.

This is also the purpose of Uesugi Kenshin accepting Uesugi's constitutional government's request and uniting the 100,000 Kanto coalition forces in Odawara.

But if Hojo is not united against Takeda now, Echigo will be dangerous.
